The Realm of the Verbal Processor

My Favorite Ramblings

Over the last year or so, there have been several posts that have stuck out to me as some of my favorites. The hazard of a blog format is that once it drops off of the front page, it is rarely seen again. A few posts have gotten a lot of search engine or forum related traffic, but most of the ones that age off of the front page are never seen again. Below are a few of my favorite posts that I have written since starting this blog…kind of a “Best of The Realm of the Verbal Processor”. I broke them down by personal and ConfigMgr posts…the two biggest categories on this blog.
